Motorist Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 This picture proves why motorists dislike cyclists on the road, this mtn sponsored group has got no consideration for anybody.
DaLoCo Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 Wonder about the idjut playing with his camera when he is supposed to have control of his car
mtb_Josh Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 I dont want to cause a fight, and I understand why cyclists can be irritating... but just go around them dude - There is no oncoming traffic whatsoever.
Danger Dassie Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 Congrats, do you want a medal? ..... Yes, what they are doing is wrong. Go lay a complaint with metro and have it on record at least. It's club 100 by the way.Unless of course your intention was to vent and post these here to stir? We know now that cyclists behave badly, we also also know that motorists behave badly .... This us versus them debate is really pointless either way until theres some give and take from everyone that uses the roads.
Capricorn Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 (edited) First caption that comes to mind is: Anyone for bowling!? come roadies tell me: why do y'all bunch up like that anyways? some technical reason or just to blah blah within earshot of each other? but i'm loving the backlash against the OPs first post. Interesting to see the personalities at work.. Edited February 26, 2011 by Capricorn
E-man Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 valid post, ride single file. If we want respect on the roads we have obey the law.
Motorist Posted February 26, 2011 Author Posted February 26, 2011 Daloco, is there always only one person in the car or is there alowed to be a passenger?Or do you always engage your fingers before your brain?

City Cycling Athletic Club Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 riding 3 or 4 abreast - even on a quiet road is not so clever. ride 2 abreast. then the motorist can overtake without driving completly on the wrong side of the road.
Motorist Posted February 26, 2011 Author Posted February 26, 2011 i was on the wrong side of the road i had to go around these idiots. would you please use your brain before you comment again. I think we would all appreciate it .thanks
Capricorn Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 (edited) there's a bunch of asses in front of the car, with a dashed line as a lane divider. So to get around the asses, he has to go into the 'wrong lane', which the dashed line says is legal. I dont see your point daloco Edited February 26, 2011 by Capricorn
jmaccelari Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 These guys are chops. It's not about going around them. It's about the fact they are riding like complete arseholes. Bunch of frikkin' fun riders who don't know how to ride in a group...
DaLoCo Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 The point is that he is on the wrong side of the road taking pictures and trying to prove that someone else is acting stupid...  I am not at all defending the cyclists, they are being idiots, no argument  BTW Motorist...I could not think as slow as you, even if I tried
Motorist Posted February 26, 2011 Author Posted February 26, 2011 Capricorn,jmaccelari,city cycling club and E-man, nice to see that there are considerate cyclists out there.Thanks
Starry nights Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 (edited) Shows how backwards we are - in many European countries (which many of which we were like - probably "Motorist" too) motorists would be happy thier fellow countrymen are out riding and politely and happily pass when safe - giving a smile and wave. Here we need to act like we are in ths stone age and throw abuse etc. Edited February 26, 2011 by Aonyx
jmaccelari Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 Here's my take on why I would like to ride over bloody cyclists: I was on my bike coming back past Jeppe Quondam in Bedfordview last Sunday when I observed three cyclists idling along (probably at their top speed) hogging the whole road with a line of cars stuck behind them. The cars could not pass due to oncoming traffic, so after some while and some hooting these tossers finally gave enough space for the cars to squeeze past. By this time I had caught up and as I passed, they moved out again, forcing me to overtake on the wrong side of the road. ****ing idiots. And there are people here who don't understand why motorists hate cyclists and condone this sort of behaviour!?
